Dr Olufemi Adeyinka Adeogba's bungling operations left several women with devastating results after they went under his knife.

The cosmetic surgeon left one woman with a dent in a breast and one of her nipples too high.

One of the women failed by Dr Adeogba was 31-year-old mum Rita Nugent who ended up seriously disfigured after paying £2,200 for a nose job.

Ms Nugent said she experienced problems almost immediately after her operation and by the time her wounds healed six months later her nose had CAVED in.

She said: "It was like something from a horror movie. I asked to speak to the surgeon to ask what happened but I was told by a nurse he wasn't available.

"I had stitches all over the septum in the middle of my nose. I was in severe pain. I had a terrible taste in the back of my mouth and I was generally unwell.

"The surgeon persuaded me I had to give it more time to heal.

"But he still didn't explain why the tip of my nose had been so damaged."

Ms Nugent told how she felt her only choice to repair the terrible damage was to return every two to three weeks for a year to have fillers injected into her nose.

She added: "My nose still looked like a mess. It was only after I was told I could get it fixed on the NHS if I had a referral from my GP that I finally had reconstructive surgery."

Dr Adeogba was employed at the private Birkdale Clinic in Crosby until 2011.

The tribunal who punished the bungling doctor, who passed his medical exams in Germany in 1979, learned he had consistently failed to take proper medical histories and provide patients with full information of the dangers of surgery.
